Fender Jaguar Price Guide

The Fender Jaguar, introduced in 1962, was Fender's most feature-laden guitar — a 24-inch scale instrument with a complex switching system, mute mechanism, and string lock. Its short scale and offset body made it popular with surf players and later generations of alternative and indie musicians.

📖 Buyer's Guide

The bridge and tremolo system are commonly modified due to the original's intonation and stability challenges. Original bridge configuration significantly impacts value. Verify the mute mechanism and string lock are original and functional. Custom colors, particularly Fiesta Red and Sonic Blue, command the highest premiums.
